Perfect for car trips, vacation craft or a simple getaway in a comfy chair. Turn it into a pillow (like this one from another design: http://housewrenstudio.typepad.com/charlotte/2010/10/back-to-the-pillow.html), sew it onto a tote or hang it on the wall.
This design is 5.5 x 9.5" with stitch lines printed on a 100% cotton panel measuring roughly 8.5 x 12". Just place it in your hoop and stitch with your favorite colors and stitches. I use a second piece of plain muslin behind the printed piece and stitch through both layers. It hides the backwork later.
I framed mine with some cotton scraps and a patchwork border.
Some of the colors I used - all DMC perle cottons sz 8:

My favorite stitches are the spider web stitch, back stitch, daisy stitch, satin stitch, couching and lots of french knots! (google any of these for online how-to's.)
